Mega Mole's sprite from Super Mario World.
In Super Mario World, when Mario and Luigi stomp or spin-jump on them, Mega Moles do not become effected and defeated, but if one spins with a cape, they can become defeated. They are also immune to almost all in-game hazards like Munchers and spikes. Mario or Luigi can jump on them and stand on their heads so he can get a free ride. Unlike regular Monty Moles, they don't pop out of holes in the ground. Despite their size, they can be swallowed and eaten by Yoshi.
Trivia
- Mega Moles are one of the few foes that can hurt Mario while he is riding Yoshi. (Most enemies merely result in the loss of Yoshi, while a few others both hurt Mario and force Yoshi to run away.)
- A Mega Mole appears in Mario Family, as one of the sewing designs.
